I become a caregiver because I enjoy taking care of elderlies. It is satisfying to see them happy and enjoying life with the loving care I give. I like to bring change to a family - a change that sees improvement from the day I first arrive. I had been a Caregiver for the last 11 years and had worked privately as well as through agencies. Have worked in private homes, facilities and retirement centers. I had cared for clients with different backgrounds and cases of Alzheimer/dementia the most.
